Pop-punk band The Matches are going to be heading to the studio soon to start demoing for the follow up to this year's A Band in Hope. It was announced on the band's blog:

We're soon heading back to the studio to begin demos for our next album. What do you think the next Matches record will be like? What do you want it to be like? Are your premonitions compatible with your wishes?

It's even more perfect for me because I'm really tall and all legs as well as skinny. It's a shame it's so expensive, because it really is the only place I can find jeans with a 28 waist and a 34 inch inseam. But it's worth it to not look ridiculous I guess. Also a shame that the sizing is so inconsistent, ordering online is like playing a very expensive lottery.

But isn't the whole point of being a musician to get better with each album? What's the point in sounding the same over and over again? It might work for NOFX, but that doesn't mean that everyband has to stay the same.

Agreed..the quote "it sounded nothing like E. Von Dahl Killed the Locals", really shows you how people think...they already made that record!..feel the same way when i hear that Thrice needs to make another Illusion of Safety

Love them a lot. I used ti hate the shit out of them for the "Chain Me Free" video, but then I heard their song on the A Santa Cause cd and loved it. Decomposer is better than the rest of their stuff, though.

First!!!
okay where can i download these demos and where can i get past albums, and who will supply me with the new album once its out?!?
ps. any links to torrents for side projects wold also be appreciated.
